​“I keep forgetting”, “It’s not important”, “I use chewing gum”, “It makes me feel in control”, “I swill my mouth out with mouth wash”, “I brushed last week”. These are the most common excuses men use to not brush their teeth. Would you treat your car like that? Let’s take a simple oil change – “I keep forgetting.” “It’s not important.” “I use cooking oil.”
I have one question: WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON’T CHANGE THE OIL IN YOUR CAR?

can you make your retirement work for you?
CLIENT: vmly&r  NEW ZEALAND
PROJECT: BLOG REWRITE FOR CLIENT - BRITANNIA
Retirement was added to the lexicon less than one hundred years ago. Relatively speaking, it’s still a shiny, new concept in the working life of mankind. And, if you’re prepared for it, you could enjoy it more than you enjoyed your youth, after all you should know yourself and what you want a lot better by now. But when and how did retirement begin?

about ​your toothbrush
CLIENT: vmly&r  NEW ZEALAND
PROJECT: BLOG REWRITE FOR CLIENT - BRITANNIA
Most people are unaware of the vast gulf between how much money the retirement they are looking forward to will cost them and the amount of money New Zealand’s Superannuation will provide. This gulf, which Massey University researchers call the ‘retirement income gap’* is one that has to be taken seriously before you get anywhere near the age of retirement.

When is the best time to get a problem tooth seen to so I don;t lose it? The answer to that is simple – before it’s a problem. The living connective tissue, cells and nerve in the centre of your teeth is called ‘pulp’. Pain in your tooth is called ‘pulpitis’, and there are two kinds – Reversible and Irreversible Pulpitis.

CLIENT: INSIGHT ONLINE NEW ZEALAND
PROJECT: BLOG FOR CLIENT - TEAM DENTAL
Despite what you may think, dentistry isn’t just about teeth. Most of the time, it’s about people. No dentist works in isolation. There's usually at least one or two other members on even the smallest team. And of course, there's the patients.

best fashion accessory ever
a great smile!

CLIENT: INSIGHT ONLINE NEW ZEALAND
PROJECT: BLOG FOR TEAM DENTAL NEW ZEALAND ON THE VALUE OF REGULAR CHECK-UPS
In the swinging sixties, flowery bell-bottoms, crocheted headbands and dentures were all very trendy. 63% of people had false teeth. Old-age pensioners and bright, young things were wearing them. These days, dentures are a last resort rather than a fashion statement. You may not have the Hollywood version of the perfect smile, but that’s no reason not to have great teeth for as long as you can.

CLIENT: OZCOPY NEW ZEALAND

​There are, out there, “creative types” that are vital to helping you become the most well-known brand in your field. Even if that field is car maintenance. The best campaigns – and by that I don’t just mean the ones that win awards at Cannes, but ones that will generate sales and get you new, loyal customers – are usually those generated by a creative team working hand-in-glove with each other.

SWEETHEART FLORIST NZ / OZCOPY
How to say goodbye

CLIENT: OZCOPY NEW ZEALAND
PROJECT: BLOG FOR SWEETHEART FLORIST
It’s so difficult to know what to say to someone who’s grieving. There are no words, except perhaps, “I love you.”
In reaching out, and especially if you are arranging a funeral, you want to say something that will relieve, even for just a moment, the starkness that death brings in its wake. You need a way to express your sympathy, but also hope, and the fact that those left behind are deeply loved and cared about.
